CotMis (incite; POISON IN MILK. . On the Fourth of July at a pic nic in Adair, a little town in Iowa, a large number of people were seriously poisoned. The matter was referred to the state board of health, and a thorough investiga tion resulted in the conclusion that the illness of the picnickers was caused by tyrotoxicon, or cheese poison, an acid fluid containing microbes, which is developed in decomposing milk or cheese. This poison, which is a new dan ger to human life, was discovered by Professor Naughn, of Ann Ar- Jbor, Mich., in 1883. Until that time sickness that often-times at tacks peoble at picnics and indoor festivals after eating freely of ice cream was generally supposed to be caused by a paison developed by contact of acid in the cream or milk with the metallic vessels in which it had . been prepared and frozen. At this day, however, the theory of the formation of the new poison, under certain not yet clear ly understood conditons, is gener ally accepted, and, as a result, ice cream is more carefully prepared and miik is guarded more closely against decomposition than forni- e.ly. A physician claimes that tyro toxicon has undoubtedly been the causo of thousands of deaths among childred who have succum bed to stomach and bowel com plaints, incident to the summer months. And the disordered con dition of children which prompts a physician to advise a change of . milk may, in a large number of instances, be traced to careless ness with the milk on the farm or dairy, or to the neglect of the lac teal fluid by the parents of the sick child. Many physicians are abandoning the "milk from the cow" theory, on the ground that the average Itealth of a herd of cows is better than the average condition of one animal. The one and only cause . of the many diseases resulting from drinking milk is that it has not - been properly taken care of. The exercise of a little more caution will cause tyrotoxicon to fade en tirely from notice. 4 NEW PLAN FOR HOME RULE. A plan of home rule that is to inclde England, Scollan d and "Wales, as well as Irsland,-has been Advanced by some of the leading followers of Mr. Gladstone. It proposes a Federal Union, with lo cal governments in each country, something after the plan of the American Union. Each of the countries are to be allowed to regu late all matters of purely local concern, while the crown would have a general authority over each, and - a general parliament would legislate on mattes of con cern to the whole empire. Many things combined have sug gested to the Gladstohians that' thia broader plan for home rule for Ireland is more likely to meet with success. Among them is the fact that the question of sep erating church from state is rapid ly pushing to the front in Scotland and Wales, and with a local legis lative government it could very easily be settled This svstem, it is claimed, would make less ap parent the concession to Ireland, and there would be no excuse for the fears of the unionists that au itoriamy would be followed by a revolt of that country from all al legiance to the empire. It is be lieved tolbe true that if each of these countries were balanced .against each other, by local self government, each would - be in spired by a pride in maintaining the integrity and dignity of the whole, such as is the case in the United States of America. Mr. Gladstone has not yet given hi3 pinion regarding this plan, but iteis said that he is considering it very carefully - Children Cry for; Pitcher's Castoria, ALIEN LASDLOEDS. . The American Citizen says that neat-ly 22,000,000 acres of land in this country (some being the best) are owned by foreign capital. This would make about ten states of the size of Massachusetts.

One of the notable features of the recent report of Carroll D, Dwight, United States Commis sioner of the National Bureau ot os Labor, is its statistics upon the cost of strikes. The aggregate ex peuse of these quarrels between capital and labor during the last six years has been the enormous sum of $90,000,000, of which two- thirds has fallen as a burden upon labor. It would seem that the labor associations and theorists of the country would perceive the folly of strikes, and instaed of advising them and aiding participants in them, would devise some better plan for bringing capital to view the justice of their demands. Some of the leaders of the laborers have indeed learned this wisdom. Pow derly has long discountenanced strikes. Chief Arthur of the So ciety of Locomotive Engineers has stated that he wonid never sanc tion another strike. When the labor power of society adopts gen erally this view of strikes the out look for an amicable adjustment of the wages problem will be more hopeful than it cart be while the danger of strikes exist. Although he had an income of $750,000 a year, in addition to a couple of palaces kept up without cost to him, the late Crown Prince of Austria left debts amounting to $2,000,000, all of which the em peror has paid. ..
